Pruning Frost-Damaged White Bird of Paradise: Technique and Regrowth

Correct Pruning

Cut entire damaged leaf stems at base (where they join the clump).
Do not cut the main trunk.
New growth emerges from rhizome "eyes" at soil level.

Regrowth Pattern

Original crown regrows from top; rhizome pups fill in base over time, creating a fuller clump.
